Not really. But Trumpies are butt hurt about Sessions recusing himself. I didn’t vote due to being out of town but I would have voted for Sessions just because it would make Trump and his minions mad.
I think had Sessions never ran then Tubberville wouldve been creamed by byrne. I really think Sessions screwed himself over by thinking that people wouldnt be stupid enough to vote for Tubberville and that Baldwin County would give him the win. Tubberville actually had a great ground game by understanding that the major cities would be out of the race since most would vote Democrat in the primaries so he went to all these podunk counties and rallied up the Trumpers.
Pulled the lever for him against Moore and I'll do it again against Tommy, and I rarely vote for Democrats in the big races.So is November a hard vote for you between Tubberville and Doug? Can you vote for a Bama man? Jkbnr
I think it'll be closer, but I don't see a realistic path to victory for a fairly mainstream Dem in a presidential election year in Alabama. Hell, even Moore probably would have won in those circumstances.
Saban can do far more good right now by putting together commercials with Gus, both telling the state's residents that they need to wear masks. Air them everywhere, put them on every social media platform, send it to ESPN.
Just wait until Mark Cuban announces his presidency. He has said multiple times that it is life long goal to do so.
I don't care for celebs in public service either but Cuban is probably one of the rare exceptions for me. He seems level headed and wise enough not to be stuck in his own tunnel vision
True story - about ten years ago I sat next to Cuban and his wife in Cracker Barrel. It was a Sunday morning, and he was dressed about like George Costanza when he wore the sweats.
Cuban can admit to being personally prejudiced about some things - and that self-awareness alone is a deep positive. The BEST posters on Tidefans have things about which they are prejudiced - but the BEST ones are also aware of that and attempt to overcome it, too.
I used to think that putting business "people" to work in Washington was a good idea but I've since changed my mind. Not because of Trump, although he has cemented my thinking. While it is true that business people would probably do a better job at managing our budget that's only one part of the job and they generally fail at the other parts. You can't run the government as a business, it just isn't. You can't just fire people, you have to cajole them into doing the right thing. You have to be a master at playing the political game. Too many business people don't have the patience for that.
IMO, the problem with executives is that almost all are narcissists. Studies show that it is almost a required trait to rise beyond a certain level in business. I don't mind having leaders with huge egos, but we can't afford another president who cares only about him/her-self.
They are also people-manipulating psychopaths...
I think most are shown to have sociopathic tendencies.
